![]() Same Garmin express software etc and now I've reset the Nav V (few posts about me not doing that right and finally resetting properly). Back to the Mac machine - now tried on a different mac to see if that made a difference (MacMini rather than my MacBook Pro). SO - we're all good with Windows but wanted it working on Mac. Then had a go with a Windows machine and it worked fine, ie it found the SD card and installed the maps onto that. Number of posts about the SD card, size, formatting etc etc - all concluded that it wasn't the actual SD card as same happened with replacement cards etc. When I chose SD wasnt recognising the SD card in the Nav. It was coming back saying not enough space on main unit, would I like to use an SD card or smaller maps. link to map install below, try this and report back.Īt the beginning of this post (beginning of August), I was attempting to upgrade map using Garmin Express on a Mac (version 4.1.27.0). and if so install the maps via that method. i will presume you have the complete maps installed on your Mac, if so have you tried using map install to see if you can see your card using that. What nav are we now talking about, the loan unit or your one, your posts are a little confusing. However - I need it to work at the weekend so will wait till after that. I think I'm going to try and complete restore - I think the NAV V has got its knickers in a twist and just wont, for whatever reason, find the SD card in connection with Maps. on the SD card (BMW NAV V) they are in a folder called Garmin. Their are map files in both, on the Nav V (GARMIN screenshot), they're in the. I've attached images of what I've got in the GARMIN (NAV V) and BMW NAV V (the SD card). I think GPX files are GPS Exchange format files - just GPS information to swap between devices. The fact that you can actually play your music files off the card, would seem to prove your unit is indeed seeing the card, but not seeing the map, now i am not familiar with mac stuff so some one may have to confirm this, on your sd card there should be a folder called garmin and in this should be a file called gmapsup1.image and another called gmapsup1.unl they are the two you need for the map to work, there may also be in that folder another folder called gpx and maybe one called jvc. This is the first time I've had to try and put a map on an SD. It appears it's just map files on the card it's struggling with. So it looks like the Nav V can't see the SD card at all.but is happy to play MP3 files from it.and worked fine this morning. The card is fine - I can install the maps on there via MapInstaller (from Garmin).then see the files on the SD card ok.but the Nav V does not recognise them - it continues to refer to the 2016.3 files on the Nav V itself. It knows that it doesn't have enough space on the Nav and suggests using an SD card.but when it looks for a card, it can't find it. The issue is GE not recognising the SD card installed in the Nav V. Mac is fine, GE is happy to place them on the computer. also ensure you have the correct usb lead there are different types, you can have a lead that just charges or a lead that does not charge but will send and recieve data, and a lead that will do both. if not try to install it using a card reader and have the software set the card in the reader as destination for the update. if you can see the maps on the mac and can actually use them on the mac i would presume the download to the mac was ok, check that the maps are actually on the card you should have a large image file of around 4gb or bigger, if the update is on the card you may have a problem with the card or the unit. have you transfered them to the card and are they there, check this. have you updated the maps on the mac and are they installed on it,check this, can you use them do they work in base camp. ![]() ![]() A couple of questions and maybe suggestions.
